Cold Air and cough

It happens every year without fail..no matter how many times I tell myself that I'm not going to let it happen. As soon as the temperature drops..every time I go outside, I have a horrendous coughing and gasping fit. It's like every breathing passage in my body collapses. It's to the point that I almost vomit from coughing so hard. Is this asthma? cold induced, perhaps? And how do I get it to stop? I just recently started an outside sales position and will be in and out of the cold every day. I just can't go through another winter like this...can someone help?

Thanks !

Re: Cold Air and cough

sounds like your small airways are constricted by the cold. Can you wear a scarf around your nose and mouth when out. See a Dr. and get tested and get an inhaler to open up those breathing passages when that happens. Sounds like asthma brought on by the cold. Pretty common. If you smoke, Quit now!
